What's missing, frankly, is a coherent design. Lots of pieces are there, but they don't always fit together well. As one trivial example, we discovered this week that Sandbar's user authentication doesn't work with Ring's keyword-parameter-names middleware. But these problems will be ironed out over time.
The best thing we can do for Clojure web development right now is start developing web applications in Clojure, find the pieces that are missing, and fill them in. Rails wasn't built in a day, it was the consummation of years of experience, distilling best practices and patterns into a framework. Clojure is a very different language from Ruby, and we will have to grow our own best practices. -S On Sep 4, 1:26 pm, Shantanu Kumar <kumar.shant...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Sep 4, 8:51 pm, HB <hubaghd...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > My wish is vanquished :) > > But I really wish if Relevance will work on a web framework since it > > is in a unique position to achieve this (having the brightest Clojure > > folks). > > I read that Relevance embracing the "20%" principle like Google, this > > is also will help you Relevance folks. > > Have a nice day all. > > HB, > > I am interested to know what deficiencies do you see in present state > of affairs in Clojure web development space.
